Majestic Kingdom JUBILATION

We declare that the kingdom of God is full of joy and celebration. The LORD has brought back the captivity of Zion. We are like those who dream. Our mouths are filled with laughter and our tongue with singing. The nations look at us and say: “The Lord has done great things for them.� Yes, we are glad. Our fortunes are restored like the streams of the South. Those who went out sowing with tears have come back reaping in joy. Those who continually go out bearing seed for sowing, have come back rejoicing, bringing their sheaves of abundance with them. This is our jubilation. The Lord majestic in His reign is our Jubilation and we rejoice in Him, now and always. Let the nations be glad and let them shout for joy. Our King comes riding on the clouds of heaven, victory in His hands. His reign is eternal and His glory never fades.

Amen.

EDITORIAL The excitement starts building up at the beginning of November. Regardless of what is going on around us, the PBC family’s enthusiasm starts peaking in readiness for Family Month and the best part is, it never ever disappoints! Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Family Month at PBC! It’s a time when the Church community comes together. Different teams bond and family ties hit their highest point. The result is remarkable promising captivating relationships that last forever.

And this is what we focus on in Inuka this month – Family – because that’s what we are at PBC. Consider Psalm 133: “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life forevermore.”

The photos capture the laughter, the tears, the hugs, the goof-ups, the unity! What a blessing…what a family!

But, 2012 has had more to offer and Inuka takes this opportunity to highlight the sights at PBC. It was the year of the Lord’s Majestic Kingdom Reign and we have experienced His excellence! Take a look and see, you just might spot yourself  As you read, we at Inuka would like to take this opportunity to wish you every blessing for the New Year. We pray that you experience a year full of favour and a closer walk with the Lord in 2013!

Don’t forget to keep in touch with us on inuka@parklandsbaptist.org Your feedback is of value to us.

For His glory!

Arise and shine
